OT: Anything Goes 40

[Putt Pirate]

I want to apologize to everyone for being a shitty poster for the last 3-4 years. I don't know what caused me to lose my shit. I feel like my presence makes this board a worse place.

I have to stop. I do not like the poster I've become. I haven't always been this way. Though I have skewed on the cynical side, I don't think I was anywhere near as insufferable pre-2020.

I'm really going to try not to post anything super negative anymore. Please bear with me as I try to get better.

Peace,
KBS

I certainly hope nobody here takes anything personally. We all love the Hawks....just have different ideas on how things should go.

Messages are always open if you want to chat.

We all have our moments*. These last 2 years have been tough on everyone. We appreciate you.

*Dig up any argument I had about Corey. I'm sure I sounded unhinged at times.

Rinse and repeat. I'll leave it at that.

WHL playoffs: Spitfires win ..... and the series with Bulldogs is going to 7 games. Haven't watched much of it but Hamilton folks have something to cheer for.

They finally ran into some resistance. Hamilton swept each of the first rounds, 4-0, 4-0, 4-0, but have been forced to Game 7 by Windsor. Been a great series.

Edmonton beat Seattle last night in the WHL finals so the Memorial Cup bracket is just waiting on the OHL series winner. Edmonton, Shawinigan and Saint John make up the other three.

Fun times losing power at 8pm at night.

And if you're in Chicago... when it's 95 degrees out still. And pushing 100 the next two days. That's miserable. Sorry man.

It what it is. If it’s still off tomorrow after work time for a hotel

Six miles on my bike and I refuse to believe people honestly prefer this shit to fall.

Summer stops being fun once you're done with school.

I will be moving to Southern Illinois at the end of the summer to live in my grandmother’s house who passed away this Spring.
I have a lot of mixed feelings about it but after losing my cat to kidney cancer and separating from a 6 year relationship it might be a good change of pace.

Good luck. One day at a time.

Whereabouts in Southern Illinois?

Hope the fresh start does you well. Lower cost of living certainly can't hurt, too.

Haven't been big into video games since high school, but the new TMNT game brings the nostalgia. Tonight = TMNT, a beer, and homemade pizza.

I picked a good time to start working for a bank.

My first work week was only four days due to orientation not being until Tuesday.

My third work week, next week, will also only be four days thanks to getting the Monday after Juneteenth off.

And my fifth work week will also be only four days thanks to the 4th of July.

Solid starting time.

 

[RayP]

4 day work week where I'm at, and not 4-10s. Just 4 normal days a week.

Vienna, IL. It’s a pretty small town in between Carbondale and Paducah, KY. And that was definitely an attractive thing about it… not making house payments/paying rent.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Ah, so actual Southern Illinois? I was half expecting the Chicago definition of anything south of Kankakee as being Southern Illinois, haha.

Check out Metropolis for a Superman fix on your way to Paducah.

And look forward to the 2024 eclipse, you'll be right in the path of totality.

Yeah definitely. I spent my summers there so I’m pretty familiar with the area. Lots of great nature and places to explore. I’ve been to the Superman statue and Fort Massac many times as a kid. I was actually down there for the 2017 eclipse and it was an incredible experience. Apparently Ozzy Osbourne was playing a festival not too far from there during it.

I maintain that everything south of kankakee is the same culturally. Wouldnt call it southern IL until your south of mattoon/charleston though.

South of Kankakee is a different state as far as I'm concerned.

Central Illinois is a whole other world from Southern Illinois.

From Chicagoland, sure, but don’t forget northeastern Illinois is very different, too.

South Wisconsin, East Kentucky/Missouri West Indiana and Chicago.
